Produced by Continental Radio & Television Corporation as the model 5Q in a marbled Beetle cabinet for Western Auto Supply, this lovely Truetone has a gold-brown dial and four station preset pushbuttons at the top of the cabinet. The circuitry is a simple AA5 that performs well. This Truetone is similar in appearance as the Admiral 361-5Q and Admiral 577-5Q.
